The Curzon specialises in independent films, including a lot of British and European ones and is perfectly located on the edge of Soho and Chinatown. It has a street level café selling cakes and cookies from my favourite bakery, Konditor & Cook and a dark relaxing lower ground floor café and bar with a number of cushy leather couches, it’s the ideal cinema really to hang out before and after a film. I don’t usually go in for cinema food, I have a tendency to accumulate everything I put in my mouth in my teeth, so popcorn’s out but they do have these amazing white chocolate covered freeze dried gooseberries, raspberries and strawberries which I will devour in minutes, feel guilty about the approximate 3000 calories I have just consumed before I proceed onto the next box. It’s modern without having any of the usual horrors that modern cinema’s have although it does lack small perks such as service at your seat, footstools or anything like that. It’s the most fun to people watch as being central London’s main independent cinema with 3 screens it’s always busy. One of the main reasons I would be loath to leave London is for places like the Curzon. Other cities just don’t seem to have as many wonderful unique cinema’s (apart from Paris, but they are mainly repertory) not L.A not even New York.
